A mod that overrides the disapproval and approval pop-up dialog to replace it with "(Character) thinks that's cringe." and "(Character) is screaming, crying, throwing up." (Alternate approval pop-up now available! "(Character) thinks that's pretty based.")

This mod overrides the disapproval dialog to read that a character "thinks that's cringe", replacing "(Character) disapproves." "(Character) approves." is replaced by "(Character) is screaming, crying, throwing up."
An alternate version is available where the disapproved actions are still cringe, but approved actions are "pretty based."
Can be installed with the BG3 Mod Manager, but must be manually uninstalled by removing the .pak from the Mods folder. (If installed with BG3MM and left "inactive", it will still be active.) BasedApproval.pak and CringeApproval.pak should not be used at the same time.
TO MANUALLY UNINSTALL: Remove the CringeApprovalV01.pak file from the Mods folder (usually %LocalAppData%\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods). This is the folder that the BG3 Mod Manager can open a shortcut to.
Specifically inspired by part of this Tumblr post (which uses a screenshot of a tweet from user @hekxate).
